I wish life was a game that I could learn to play Oh Lord please teach me how And if everything's the same, I try not to stay the same In a moment I could change I'm wishing for boardwalk I can't trap that mouse Would I cheat if I wanted to win? I'm already dead If life could be a puzzle When we make the pieces fit It would look all right and we'd be okay with it And as our eyes enlarge we'd pick a winning card Like it matters anyway It's just a game If life was a game, so easy to play Just throw the dice without throwing your life away Take a chance here, take a chance there Start again from the beginning No consequences Nobody's winning
